Engineering management is a field that bridges the gap between engineering and management.

Engineering management involves the overall management of organizations with an orientation to

manufacturing, construction, engineering, technology or production. Programs are available that
provide Bachelor's, Master's and Ph.D degrees. Undergraduate programs provide generalist
degrees that enable engineers to better deal in the business environment. Master of engineering
management (MEM) provide a technical -based alternative to traditional MBA programs. Industrial
and professional associations such as engineers' societies also offer certification programs that
validate engineering management knowledge an d skills. Specialization areas in both degree and
certification programs may include management of technology, product and process, quality,
organizational management, operations management, program management, marketing and
finance.

The Master of Engineering Management degree is often abbreviated MEM can be either
an academic or professional master's degree in the field of engineering. It is generally
pursued by engineers and scientists interested managing technical teams as opposed to
business teams. It can be earned with a prequisite BS in engineering o r science or as a post -
graduate program with a Bachelor of Engineering Management degree.
